We examine the modes of intervention of global public intellectuals at times of crisis. In critical situations, public intellectuals take positions on matters that affect the societies they inhabit and, eventually, all humanity. To this end, they take advantage of the opportunities afforded by new communications technologies, establishing an important distinction between the “analog” intellectual (who relies on the slow time of books, opinion columns, and bookstores) and the “digital” intellectual who uses modern information and communications technologies. To study the activities of global public intellectuals and their political influence, we propose to leave aside the notion of “transnational intellectual field” in favor of an understanding of a transnational intellectual stage peopled by a certain type of intellectual agent whose symbolic and cultural production is disseminated through a digital global public circuit. To illustrate the functioning of a circuit of this type, we take the example of the Project Syndicate platform.

危机与公共知识分子：从跨国知识领域到数字全球公共电路

我们研究了危机时期全球公共知识分子的干预方式。在紧急情况下，公共知识分子会在影响他们所居住的社会以及最终影响全人类的事务上担任职务。为此，他们利用新的通信技术提供的机会，在“模拟”知识分子（依赖书籍，观点专栏和书店的缓慢时间）和使用“数字”知识分子之间建立了重要的区别。现代信息和通信技术。要研究全球公共知识分子的活动及其政治影响力，我们建议撇开“跨国知识领域”的概念，而去理解由某种类型的知识分子所占据的跨国知识舞台，这些知识分子的象征性和文化生产是通过数字全球公共电路来传播的。为了说明这种电路的功能，我们以Project Syndicate平台为例。
